Last night, our Harland Brothers Real Estate team stood beneath the clear, crisp skies of Jackson Hole and witnessed something truly extraordinary—the northern lights. The elusive aurora borealis made a rare and breathtaking appearance over the valley, painting the night sky in soft greens and violet streaks that danced above the Tetons.
With minimal light pollution and one of the most dramatic mountain skylines in the West, Jackson Hole offered the perfect setting for this natural wonder. Our team gathered at a north-facing vantage point just outside of town, cameras ready, as the first faint glow appeared on the horizon. Within moments, waves of light began to ripple across the sky—an unforgettable reminder of the beauty that defines life in this corner of Wyoming.
This rare event was caused by a powerful geomagnetic storm, sending solar particles deep into Earth’s atmosphere and extending aurora visibility much farther south than usual. Thanks to Jackson Hole’s high elevation, open valley, and dark-sky conditions, our community had front-row seats to the show.
And the magic may not be over yet. Forecasts suggest another chance of activity tonight, and our team plans to head out once again in hopes of catching another glimpse.
Moments like these remind us why so many people dream of calling Jackson Hole home. Here, nature doesn’t just surround you—it becomes part of your everyday experience. Whether you’re searching for a home with sweeping Teton views or a quiet retreat under the stars, Jackson Hole offers a lifestyle as rare and beautiful as the northern lights themselves.
